Could Apple's OLED iPad Mini Finally Be a Kindle Killer?

The weird thing is I don't think the Kindle is a loss-leader for Amazon anymore. I really wanted a Kindle Scribe Colorsoft, but $700 is a tough pill to swallow when iPad Air costs far less. But I still can't buy into the iPad as a notebook replacement with the current tactile feel and glossy display

Kobo Clara Color vs BW comparison

Each to their own. I like to see my comics in colour and I've never once been in a room where the backlight has felt too dim. I will however be a gatekeeper and proudly state that the Clara Colour is still significantly better value than the Kindle Colorsoft; extra storage, wireless charging, and no

I have a confession…..

I’ve been struggling with the Colorsoft. I find I have to adjust the warmth and brightness with a frequency that’s a nuisance. The battery also drains fast. I read for the whole day after Christmas (8ish hours) and it went from fully charged to dying. In comparison to the Paperwhite, which took like

UPDATE: Waited 5 months for my RAM, it died in 2 weeks, and now Amazon wants to screw me over with a useless refund.

They’re just going to keep sending you shitty products. Did anyone even see how they handled their Kindle Colorsoft release? The screens had a yellow band across them and they just kept taking old one backs and sending out new broken ones. For a year. You’re dealing with a company who is so big they

Kindle to Kobo?

I switched from Kindle to kobo and prefer kobo. It has a better UI, no ads anywhere, and overdrive integration. I downloaded all my kindle books before Amazon got rid of the download feature, so they were easy to de-drm with Calibre. I'd advise that, even if you stay with kindle, you download and ba

Empfehlung für E-Book-Reader und Seiten zum Downloaden

Farbdisplay ist ein wenig ein Knackpunkt. Ich habe einen kindle colorsoft. Das geht zwar schon, aber es ist halt sehr matt und nicht so viele Farben zur Auswahl. Über Calibre kann man relativ gut Bücher als sideload hochladen. Notizen sind aber nicht ideal. Mich reizt dafür der neue kindle scribe co

i want a bigger kobo clara color

Me too. There's options but way too expensive like the Kindle Scribe Colorsoft or remarkable Paper Pro or the Boox Air 3 C or Ultra C Pro. Hopefully in a few years the big one will be more accessible.

Any NetGalley users impacted by the older kindle support dropping?

The new Kindle that I would get if I had the cash is the colorsoft 11 inch but 600? I'll just go buy a ipad and put the app on it - I got hubby a kindle fire hd refurb. I have the kobo app on my ipad and the kindle app.

I own a Kindle Paperwhite 12th Gen and bought a Kobo Clara BW (review)

I believe that’s the pricing difference where you are. In the US, the Kobo Libra Colour is currently $229, and the Kindle Colorsoft is $249. And yes, multiple sources say the Colorsoft is a Paperwhite Signature with an extra screen. There are some battery and clarity tradeoffs, but the basic device
